Two exceptional tastings. An unforgettable taste experience. A touch of Panama to take home.

Discover Panama from a very special side and dive into the fascinating world of Panamanian rum and fine chocolate!

We pick you up from your hotel in the morning and drive together to Amador for a photo stop with spectacular views of the Panama City skyline. Then we head to the historic old town of Casco Viejo, where the guide explains the main sights and Panama’s history. After that, an exclusive tasting experience awaits, where you get creative yourself.

Chocolate workshop

You will visit an artisan chocolate workshop. Here you get to know the variety of Panamanian chocolate and taste different kinds of chocolate from Panama. Notice the subtle differences, discover new favourites and let the aromas of local cocoa surprise you.

Rum blending experience

In a special rum blending experience, you become a rum creator yourself!

  • Tasting of three selected rums from the in-house distillery, specially chosen for blending
  • Creating your very own rum blend
  • A free cocktail
  • Delicious accompaniments with cashews and chocolate of Panamanian origin
  • For an extra charge you can take your own rum blend home

Casco Viejo: World Heritage Site

Casco Viejo, also known as Casco Antiguo, is the historic district of Panama City and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This fascinating quarter combines a rich history with colonial and neoclassical architecture and is known for its charming cobbled streets, colourful buildings and historic squares. Sights include Panama Cathedral, Plaza de la Independencia and the Teatro Nacional. Stroll through the narrow lanes, admire the historic buildings and try the local food: a place you shouldn’t miss when visiting Panama City.
